For those who have built a 4a boost or not feel free to chime in. I have built me a 7rib gze bottom end. .5 oversize. With ACL race bearings. Extra oil clearance.
I used moly assembly lube as well.
Any thoughts? Anything to do differently from OEM 4a procedure?
Synthetic or not?
Pre fill the oil pump and filter?
